We have made it to Week 6 of the NFL season, and for now, all 11 games on the main slate are still on track to play this week. There has been a covid scare with the Falcons, so keep an eye on the Falcons and Vikings game, which would take a couple of major […]
GPP DFS Value Plays for FanDuel, DraftKings (Week 6) - Daily Fantasy Football Advice
It's possible that my Week 6 GPP Value Plays have been influenced by Amazon Prime Day which was earlier this week. I didn't buy too much, but I did buy two items that were dramatically reduced. And a quick look at my Week 6 DFS value plays shows options that combined are fine cheaper than […]
NFL DFS Stacks for DraftKings, FanDuel - Week 6 GPP Contests (DFS Tournaments)
When trying to find strong Week 6 GPP DFS stacks, one of the first things I needed to do is determine which stacks are going to be the "cash" and heavily owned stacks. With it appearing now that the Minnesota/Atlanta game is still going to be played, both those teams jump out as potential cash […]

Wide Receiver Matchups To Target in Week 6
The Week 5 wide receiver matchup article only featured one player that finished inside the top-10, and that was Jamison Crowder who finished as WR-7 on the week. Tee Higgins underwhelmed in a tough matchup against the Ravens Defense, Golden Tate flopped in a great matchup against the Cowboys and Deebo Samuel’s performance suffered due […]

Jacksonville Delivers No New Positive COVID-19 Tests Sunday
The game scheduled for Sunday between the Detroit Lions and Jacksonville Jaguars will go on as planned after the Jaguars announced Sunday morning that they had no new positive COVID-19 tests. Despite having 12 practice squad players (and defensive end Josh Mauro) placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Saturday, Jacksonville has gotten multiple negative tests from […]
Week 6 Defense (DEF) Streamers and Starts - 2020 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings
I was riding high after predicting eight out of the top ten defenses two weeks ago, but we saw some craziness this Sunday (along with some top tier defenses postponed or canceled), which caused only a 50% success rate in identifying top-10 units. Miami throttling San Francisco was truly a surprise, as was a Kansas […]

NFL Betting Picks For Week 6 (10/18/2020) - Moneylines, Totals, and Spreads
As fans, we had our emotions played with in Week 5 a bit. There were several COVID-19 cases that made their way around the league, but in turn, we only had one game moved. In our games, Arizona was ready to hit the over themselves, but they pulled back and took it easy on the […]
Pivot Plays and Post-Waiver Pickups - Week 6
The pivot plays and post-waiver pickups keep coming, RotoBallers! There is no Thursday game this week to burn fantasy football players, but there are now two Monday night games and plenty of Sunday games that could catch fantasy managers off guard if they do not have backup plans in place for the “questionable” players on […]
Jaguars Put 12 Practice Squad Players On Reserve/COVID-19 List
The Jacksonville Jaguars announced Saturday that they have placed 12 of their practice squad players on the league’s reserve/COVID-19 list ahead of Sunday’s contest against Detroit. At this point, there’s no reason to believe that the game between the Lions and Jaguars is in jeopardy, as Jacksonville is reportedly making the move as a precaution. […]

Every week, this column will spotlight the first-year players who are ripe for a breakout performance. Often, rookies can provide some of the most value as under-the-radar options.

Laviska Shenault Jr. Looks To Continue Upward Trajectory
Jacksonville Jaguars rookie wide receiver Laviska Shenault Jr. is coming off one of the best games of his first NFL campaign, catching a career-high seven passes for 79 yards against Houston. Shenault has entered the fantasy football starter conversation in deeper leagues and has a plus matchup this week against the Lions, who allow the […]
D.J. Chark Jr. Has Strong Upside In Week 6
Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver D.J. Chark Jr. (ankle) only had three catches for 16 yards before being forced out of Week 5's contest against the Houston Texans. But if Chark is able to go against the Lions on Sunday, he'll be a strong WR2 play against a Lions Defense that allows the eighth-most fantasy points […]
Beginner's Luck? Chase Claypool, Travis Fulgham, Other WR Breakouts
It sometimes takes rookie wide receivers a season or two to reach their full potential. Davante Adams averaged 465 receiving yards in his first two NFL seasons. Michael Irvin had a total of 78 receptions in his first three NFL seasons. The 2014 season was a special one for rookie WRs. Mike Evans, Odell Beckham […]
Week 6 Waiver Wire Pickups & Adds
More delays, postponed games, and schedule changes. Get used to the new normal. We should be thankful that we at least have an NFL season that has gone mostly according to plan, other than every good running back being injured.

Lies, Damned Lies, and Fantasy Statistics - Yards Per Carry
Are five games enough to start reading into ROS player values based on performance? Unlike baseball, where certain statistics can start to become reliable or "sticky" after a certain at-bat or innings-pitched threshold, it's never the case in football. It's a game where big individual plays make all the difference and only 16 games make […]
James Robinson's Role Continues To Rise
Jacksonville Jaguars running back James Robinson remains in the RB2 conversation due to his increased workload on the ground and in the passing game for this Jags team, as he's had 17 touches or more in each game and saw a season-high seven targets last week. An even bigger factor this week, though, may be […]
Gardner Minshew II A Strong QB2 Play Against Lions
Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Gardner Minshew II should be considered a high-end streaming play in one-QB fantasy leagues on Sunday when the Jaguars face the Detroit Lions. The Lions allow the 10th-most fantasy points per game to opposing passers, and Minshew has three 300-yard games already this year. He's starting to cut down on the interceptions […]

Is JuJu Smith-Schuster Still a WR1?
In the last 10 seasons, only one man has been able to finish with more than 300 PPR points in fantasy leagues while playing wide receiver for the Pittsburgh Steelers: Antonio Brown. The misunderstood and now much-maligned wideout did it six times from 2013 to 2018 without failing at it, getting between 307.3 points and 388.2 […]
